Chapter 1519: Relevant and irrelevant persons?

The King of the Wind described the specific time and place of the meeting concisely and clearly.

As the other party wished, Pan Xiaoxiao wrote down a few lines of text in her notebook.

After she finished, she looked at Mrs. Octopus with great curiosity.

She didn't understand why the King of the Wind insisted that she record the time and place of her meeting with Kurgon in handwriting.

Although the location is a bit remote and difficult to find.

But it’s definitely not complicated.

Even if you are worried that Pan Xiaoxiao will forget something because she is busy with things, why not let her use the data panel to record it?

You can view it anytime, anywhere, which is much more convenient than recording it on paper.

She thought that Mrs. Octopus would answer her doubts.

Unexpectedly, the latter just swiped twice on the panel and sent the King of the Wind's statement and the video she recorded to the two people's data panels respectively.

"This..." Pan Xiaoxiao didn't understand what it meant.

"You'll know after you see it." Matilda said mysteriously:

"You should have been studying 'Magic Runes', right?"

"Don't deny it. I saw it on Lu Li's flesh and blood statue when I came to Earth before."

"At that time, the time was not right, so I didn't mention it."

"Now, it's time to tell you its true origin."

"Actually, that kind of writing should be called 'Ancient Secret Writing'. It was first discovered in the ancient ruins of the Demon Realm."

"Besides the special bonuses you've discovered so far, these secret texts actually have another function when attached to a human body or a flesh and blood statue."

Pan Xiaoxiao listened to Mrs. Octopus's story and clicked on the video sent by her with full of doubts.

After just two glances, the whole person was stunned on the spot.

Because the words spoken by the King of the Wind were no longer what she could easily understand before.

It has turned into an obscure and difficult language.

Although he could still understand it, he obviously no longer had the previous feeling of "smooth flow".

As the video continued, the camera quickly focused on her, Pan Xiaoxiao, and the words recorded in the notebook.

The content above is no longer in Chinese, but has turned into unfamiliar symbols.

"W-What's going on?!"

Pan Xiaoxiao turned to look at the notebook still spread out on the table, and confirmed her data panel again.

I'm sorry!

The text on the notebook doesn’t match what’s in the video!

The notebook still has Chinese characters written in beautiful handwriting, with coherent sentences and clear words.

But in the video, the content turned into unfamiliar symbols and became "ancient secret text"!

If Pan Xiaoxiao had not been the sole person in charge of the "top secret project" and had not learned and memorized a lot of "ancient secret texts", she would not have been able to understand the meaning of those unfamiliar symbols!

"What you saw is another function of the ancient secret text, blocking information."

Matilda spoke slowly:

"It would be very abstract to explain it in detail... You can simply understand it as an invisible will that wants to prevent us from understanding something."

"When we touch upon this content intentionally or unintentionally, the ancient secret text will appear, shielding us from the information."

"But the situation is much better now than before. At least we can copy down those secret texts and study and translate them."

“That wasn’t possible before.”

"Only those who are favored by the invisible will can understand its meaning."

"For those who are not familiar with the text, even memorizing it by rote is a problem, let alone understanding it."

"For example, the man next to me, the Overlord of the Storm Star Region, the King of the Wind, Mr. Corleone."

"Uh... So, the King of the Cold Wind is an 'irrelevant person'?" Pan Xiaoxiao adjusted his glasses and asked curiously:

"Then why was he able to tell me the time and place of the meeting with Kurgon?"

"Because I said it directly using the ancient secret text." The King of the Wind slapped the tentacle on his leg and rolled his eyes at Madam Octopus.

"This woman could have told you this herself, but she insisted on making me show off my foreign language skills."

"Master Pan, you don't know how difficult it is for an old man like me, over three hundred years old and almost four hundred, to memorize those difficult ancient secret texts and speak them smoothly..."

"An elemental spirit over three hundred years old should be in its prime, right?" Matilda retracted her tentacles and quickly retorted:

"I'm doing this for your own good, to give your brain some exercise so you don't get Alzheimer's before you're old."

"...The King of the Wind used ancient secret text to tell me the time and place of my meeting with Kurgon, and I was able to understand it directly and record it." Pan Xiaoxiao combined the known information and quickly deduced the situation she faced:

"So I am a 'related person', someone who is favored by an invisible will?"

"Ma'am, you too?"

"Just call me Matilda. After all, I'm no longer the overlord of Neptune." Madam Octopus smiled slightly and nodded in acknowledgment.

"Yes, I am also a 'related person' like you."

"But don't ask me why. I've been thinking about it for hundreds of years and still can't find the reason."

"Also, let me give you another piece of advice."

"Because of the existence of that invisible will, I suggest that if you have any important secrets or matters that need to be discussed, try not to communicate through the data panel."

"What you think is highly confidential may actually be under scrutiny."

"No wonder they asked me to record it in a notebook instead of using the data panel..." Pan Xiaoxiao nodded with some understanding.

She suddenly remembered some details of the past.

When Lu Li entrusted the "top secret project" to her, it seemed that he also used a large pile of paper to record the "magic words" instead of sending photos directly through the data panel.

Could it be that since that time, he had already discovered the existence of the invisible will and taken precautions against it?

Has he actually considered it to this extent?!

"That's all the information King of the Wind and I have for you. We're not sure about the rest of the matter, so you need to send someone or go in person to contact Kurgon."

Madam Octopus said:

"Of course, if you can't spare the time yourself and plan to send someone over, it's best if that person is a 'stakeholder' to avoid unnecessary trouble."

"It's not difficult to distinguish between 'irrelevant' and 'relevant' individuals. Just let the target look at what you wrote in the notebook."

"If he can understand the ancient secret text without being familiar with it, then he is 'relevant'. Otherwise, he is 'irrelevant'."

"Also, the fewer people who know about this, the better, to prevent the secret from being leaked and triggering a series of chain reactions."
